Haydock's commentary
These. From this place to ver. 26, is written in a kind of parenthesis: the remainder of the chapter is a recapitulation of what had been said. (Calmet)
Moses intends to give his own genealogy, and the state of affairs when he began to afflict Egypt. (Haydock)
He mentions three tribes, which Jacob had rebuked, lest any one might think they had forfeited their title to some distinctive tribes. (Menochius)
